On this episode, we’re joined by Karli Paulson. Karli is publisher and editor of the weekly Clark County Courier in Clark, South Dakota. Karli recently purchased the paper – she had been working for it as the office manager and typesetter. She’s a graduate of Minnesota-State Moorhead.
Karli talked about her path from animation major in college to 23-year-old newspaper owner. She explained her vision for the paper and future goals and walked us through what goes into getting her paper out to the people of Clark (approximate population, 3,800). It was refreshing to hear from someone working in a place so reliant on community news coverage.
Karli’s salutes:
- Glenn Elmore, publisher South Shore Gazette (South Shore, South Dakota)
- Garrick and Carrie Moritz, Garretson Gazette (Garretson, South Dakota)
